I have been going to Ignition Tattoo for a couple years now, my artist is Ronnie Sanchez. All of…read morethe work by Ronnie and the other artists in that shop is top-notch and falls under one of the best shops in the desert. It's super clean, and a great atmosphere to get tattooed in. They have music, tv, and other things to keep you busy while you're getting tattooed, the other artists are extremely friendly and also fun to chat with while in the shop. They are extremely professional and provide you with the best quality tattoos in the high desert. They provide custom tattoos also which is a plus, and they also usually have an artist standing by that handles walk-ins.

A co-worker that I hadn't seen in months saw me in the office, and I was able to see her amazing…read moreartwork. Not many tattoo artists will tattoo the face, but my co-worker is an artist, a teacher, and has significance to what she has always wanted. She happily greeted me and showed me her proud piece, which looked beautiful on her. She thanked me because I referred her to Black Anchor Collective. She asked me who did my artwork (and I made it clear about how picky I am about the art and the artists I choose), and she decided to go to Black Anchor Collective. I don't know the name of her artist, but she was proud and confident in displaying her facial art piece, and it did look great. The line work was fantastic. My artist was Matt Hurtado. He enjoys special interest pieces like MARVEL and DC comics, Pokémon, specific Japanese anime, LEGO, Star Wars, and so much more. For me, though, I requested flowers and a Scorpio, and he created my piece. Check the artists' pages and artwork before scheduling your appointment. You'd see what styles you like, and I liked Matt's style. I saw some flowers, and I knew he could do what I envisioned. The building is clean with artwork everywhere. Much of it reflects the owner's, Nikko Hurtado, style and things. But each artist has their own room that best reflects their own style and things. Booking an appointment at Black Anchor Collective requires time, patience, and email savviness. If you don't know how to read or respond to emails, you may need to go somewhere else. This place is professional, and many of the artists attend conferences or have long sessions. If they can respond to your email while on the road, perfect, and it's always helpful to know what you want. I am glad I got my piece from Black Anchor Collective, and I did patiently wait for about a month for my spot. Every artist is different, so follow their social media and contact them accordingly.

She really listened to what I wanted, made the process feel comfortable from start to finish, and helped me achieve the look I was hoping for. What stood out most was how thorough and intentional she was. She took great care in mapping the shape and finding the right color for my lip blush, and I really appreciated that she never rushed the process. I was looking for someone who specialized in a natural style, and she truly knows how to enhance your features while still keeping them natural. She'll definitely be my go-to for permanent makeup in the future, and I'd highly recommend her. Thank you again for making this such a great experience from start to finish!

*Visited business before COVID-19; appreciation post*…read more Kenny has done all artwork on my arm with the exception of my ferris wheel and the coordinates under the mountain. The mountains took about an hour and a half and the rips/flowers took about 3 hours. I am sure I'm not the only one who thinks it might be a little awkward to sit there with a new tattoo artist, thinking what are you going to talk about, are they going to be cool, etc. All that went away as soon as I met Kenny. I was referred to him by a good friend. He's always very professional, really down to earth and he's a great designer. I came to him with a concept and he beautifully executed the vision I had in my head. With the mountains, I just wanted an image of something that already existed...fort the flowers only had the image in my head to go off of and Kenny hadn't done many "rip" tattoos, but I couldn't be more happy with how it came out. I am obsessed every time I see it. As long as he's an artist I will continue to come to him.

I wasn't nervous about getting tattoos and it wasn't my first one; but when I think back to my first one, I would've so much rather it have been her because of how personable and kind and she is. She was very informative and let me know what to expect. She created a customized piece for me off of some examples I showed her and understood the vision I had in my head, which was great because I wasn't good at explaining it and I'm not very creative. She even helped with a cover up that is complete invisible now. The tattoos I got were line-work and the fact she covered up an old regrettable tattoo with JUST line-work was amazing! I'm so excited to schedule more work with her in the future and I will be patient because I know she is booked out due to her amazing work and I'm sure other clients feeling the same way I do about her. You will fall in love with her work, and get great conversation along with it. I'll try to remember to upload pictures later. Thank you for my beautiful new pieces, Aly!
